Issue Description

Not code related: the preview tab of the contributing.md file weirdly doesn't exist unlike README.MD making the "Make a Submission" link from the website lead to the raw markdown without any rendering as seen in the screenshot below. I tried reproducing on a new repository but it's not the same—all three tabs are displayed (Preview, Code, and Blame). Also, it's not because it's .md and not .MD (both ought to work).

My guess is that the files have not been updated for a long time (maybe update it?) or there's a setting you need to toggle in GitHub. But this is worth investigating to offer a better reading experience.

Steps to Reproduce

No response

Expected Behavior

contributing.md and moderators.md files should include the "Preview" tab by default.
